I disagree, and wait for someone to correct me, but since the rear 
brakes only contribute about 40% of the stopping power in the first 
place, and the harder you are braking the less they contribute because 
of the forward transfer of weight, I would guess that there is little 
sense in increasing the swept area of the rear discs. Did I miss the 
point somewhere?
